Troubleshooting NM 1.4.0 (was 'How to activate...randomization?')

2016-08-31 Thread Chris Laprise 
I am trying out the new NM in Debian testing by installing the 
network-manager 1.4.0-3 and network-manager-gnome 1.4.0-2 versions from 
unstable.



NM 1.4 shows up in the systray, but won't display any access points. It 
does seem to be trying to manage the wifi device, as its MAC address now 
changes to a random number; I can see this with ifconfig.



NM 1.2.4 had been working fine before the upgrade.


Any troubleshooting suggestions?

Hi,

as a follow-up, I tried to explain the new options here:
https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-networkmanager-1-4-0/

Otherwise, our documentation should answer all your questions
-- if you don't understand something from our manual pages, we'd like
to improve them.

The blog post does explain the 'stable' option pretty well, though the 
'Supported Modes' looks a little too terse to explain the new behaviors 
('stable' would seem to be a non-random option). At first glance, the 
expanded options look very useful.


But the new NM is not yet working for me... see new troubleshooting thread.
